Harvey force
behind dept.
by Scott Norman
The science department of Cal
Baptist is beginning to grow, slowly
at first, but it is rapidly gaining momentum. The moving force behind
its growth is new division head Edward Harvey.
Harvey, a native of Biloxi, MS,
came to Cal Bapist this year from
Mississippi Gulf Coast Junior College. His credentials include a B.S.
degree in biological sciences from
William Carey College, a BD. in
theology from New Orleans Baptist
Theological Seminary, and a PhD.
in marine biology and zoology from
the University of Southern Mississippi.
Harvey has taught at William
Carey, SMU, Florida State University, and Jackson State University.
He was instrumental in the integra-

Baylor caught in controversy
Reprinted from the November
issue of Newsweek on Campus.
Controversy is not readily apparent
at Baylor, the world's largest and
best-known Southern Baptist university. Its lush campus on the
banks of the Brazos River in Waco,
Texas, is home to a record 11,556
students this fall—despite efforts to
contain enrollment~and applications
continue to pour in. But Baylor is a
school under siege by a faith divided.
Fundamentalists who have dominated the Southern Baptist Convention
since 1979 have accused Baylor,
along with several Southern Baptist
seminaries, of becoming dangerously
"liberal".
Few outside the SBC view "Jerusalem on the Brazos" as a liberal
place. Though only 60 percent of
the students and half the faculty are
Baptists, all students are expected to
conform to rules so strict that students sometimes refer to Baylor as
"the school of thou-shalt-not-have-
fun." Students may not drink or
dance on campus; they may not display pictures of beer or pinups in the
dorms. "Indecent or immoral con
duct, lewd or lascivious action, sexual promiscuity or illicit cohabitation" on or off campus grounds is
grounds for expulsion. Of course,
some Baylor students have been
known to imbibe alcohol and use
drugs, dance and even engage in
premarital sex. But the source of
conflict at Baylor is neither dance
nor drugs nor sex; it is the Bible.
Fundamentalist leaders like the
Rev. W.A. Criswell of Dallas insist
the Bible is without error. Moderate
Baptists agree that the Bible was
inspired by God, but are freer in
interpretation; some even declare a
belief that God may have used evolution to create the universe. Both
views have traditionally been acceptable in this noncreedal denomination.
But fundamentalists argue that the
religion's teaching should reflect
their views as a majority. Otherwise, they say, its schools could
lose their religious identities, as
Northwestern and others with church
affiliations eventually did. In 1979
one fundamentalist criticized a
religion-department text that suggested the first five books of the
Bible might not have been written
by Moses. In 1984 another demanded that a tenured Spanish professor at
Baylor be removed because he was a
Mormon. The removal of a religion
professor who accepted evolution
was also sought Later that year two
fundamentalist students presented
Baylor president Herbert Reynolds
with a "manifesto" demanding that
faculty members who could not
prove they were born-again Baptists
be dismissed. This fall, like-minded
students, outraged by a Doonesbury
cartoon critical of TV evangelist Pat
Robertson, insisted that the student
newspaper censor such material.
Reynolds has consistently defied
fundamentalist efforts to control the
university and declares himself
committed to the principle of academic freedom. For 140 years, he
notes, Baylor's mission has been to
provide a strong academic education
in a Christian environment. Its
schools of law, nursing, education
and business have earned enviable
reputations. Most students, says
history freshman Reich Chandler,
